Hi!:)
Hope all is well with you guys!
I have 2 questions:
- I am using a Calendar and would like to exclude 1 category from the calendar, now i have read about making one main category and assigning the events to that one, excluding the events you don’t want to show. However if i do that my colors disappear. Now i saw in other topics that since 2014 a lot of people have struggled with this and that you guys were working on a solution. Is there a solution now? I am also not afraid to work with php, so if i can fix it by adding some code i would be happy to do so. In the past i used some code to exclude a category from a dropdown in table template, that worked perfectly, so if you guys can help me out to change up the code a bit so it works for the Calendar PERFECT:) Other options are welcome of course!
- Then my second question, i am working with Woocommerce as well, as we both have events we “sell” as products. So for the products i use woocommerce and for events i use event espresso.
I saw that i could buy the “wp-user integration for event espresso”, however i am already using the account option in Woocommerce, so it would be kind of confusing for my clients.
For example a new client arrives:
- Wants to buy one of our products and in the check out he registers for his account and finalizes his payment/order (so in the future he will not have to fill in his details/he can see his buying history etc)
- Then he goes to our events page and wants to register for an event, he proceeds to check out and then get’s the option to fill in his details (returning customer) so fills in his “new” details from the previous product page, but it is obviously not working, he needs to register again for another account.
Now i think this is very confusing for customers and also takes extra time which makes the “shopping” experience less pleasant. So i was wondering if it is possible to link the woocommerce account to event espresso, so people either register once in the events or once in the products pages and from there on can use the same account for both systems? Probably a hard thing to do, but let me know maybe it is possible:)
Cheers!

Hi Pim,
You can hide one category’s events on the calendar by adding the following CSS to your custom stylesheet:
.fc-event-container .category-slug {
display:none;
}
You replace the category-slug with the actual category slug.
For WooCommerce, I’m not familiar with how its accounts work. Are they actual WordPress user accounts that get stored in the wp_users and wp_usermeta tables? If so, then those accounts will automatically work with the Event Espresso WP Users Integration add-on.

Hi Josh,
Thanks for the quick reply, i tried the code and so far so good so i think it works!:)
Regarding woocommerce, i have no idea, it all looks the same to me. Do you know where/how i can see how woocommerce uses the accounts?
Cheers,

If the woocommerce accounts use the built-in WordPress user accounts, you’ll see Woocommerce accounts in the Users section of the WordPress dashboard.

Aah Yes! I think that is the case, ok so you are saying that if my client makes an account in woocommerce and later goes to events espresso it will work because they use the same system? But of course i still would need to buy the event espresso wp user add on correct? Even though it is already build in woocommerce?
Cheers,
